I am an international artist, activist, scholar currently based in New York City where I am a Visiting Scholar in the Department of Religion in at Columba University.
Situated at convergences of arts, health, healing, and activism, my practice focuses on the performance and performative articulations of vulnerable bodies, examining expressions of identity and belonging and the influence of religious, cultural and social practices on the health and well-being of individuals, communities, and societies. I hold particular interest in the lives and aspirations of African Diaspora/Black Atlantic bodies in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
